privacy policy
Effective July 23, 2026. Applies to the Intuition IDE and getintuition.dev.
the short version
Intuition turns the codebase you open into a living course. To explain your code, it sends the relevant snippets to OpenAI and gets prose back. We keep an account for you and count the tokens you use. We never store your code or the explanations on our servers, and your code index never leaves your machine.
what we collect
Account. You sign in with Google. We receive and store the basic profile Google shares: your email address, name, and avatar. Accounts and sessions are managed by Supabase, our authentication and database provider.
Usage metering. Each AI request records an event against your account: which model ran, how many tokens went in and out, and whether the call succeeded. The IDE also reports lightweight product events (for example, that an explanation was generated) so we can see what is used and meter beta credits. These events contain counts and names, never the content of your code or the prose you received.
Feedback. If you send feedback from the IDE, Supabase stores the message against your account. If you use the site feedback form, Web3Forms delivers the message and your account email to our support inbox.
Update checks. The IDE periodically asks our update service whether a newer version exists, sending its version, platform, and build identifier. Update installers are downloaded from GitHub.
what we send to OpenAI
When you ask Intuition to explain code, generate a lesson, or summarize a commit, the request — including the relevant file excerpts, commit summaries, and repository structure — is relayed through our gateway to OpenAI’s API, and the response is returned to your editor.
Our gateway never persists the content of these requests or responses; it records only the token counts described above. Under OpenAI’s API terms, data sent to the API is not used to train their models.
what never leaves your machine
The code index Intuition builds to map your repository, your course progress, and the local cache of generated explanations all live in your project and user folders on your computer. We have no copy of your codebase.
what we don't do
We don’t sell your data, show ads, or share your information with third parties beyond the processors named here: Supabase for accounts and usage, OpenAI for model requests, GitHub for update downloads, Web3Forms for waitlist and feedback delivery, PostHog for website analytics, and Cloudflare Turnstile for abuse prevention. The editor’s upstream Microsoft telemetry is not present in Intuition.
this website
getintuition.dev uses PostHog for product analytics (page visits and anonymous waitlist conversion events). Joining the waitlist does not send your name, email address, or company to PostHog.
Waitlist and feedback forms are delivered through Web3Forms. The public waitlist is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which processes browser and request signals to distinguish people from automated abuse.
retention and deletion
Account and usage records are kept while your account is active. Email zhengfeng@getintuition.dev to access or delete your data; we will remove your account and its usage history.
changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will note it here with a new effective date. Questions? Same address: zhengfeng@getintuition.dev.
